How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 18 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 9 run outs (4 direct, 5 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
921 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 32.5, strike rate 71.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
26 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 0.59 per match at 19.6, economy 4.31, strike rate 27.2.
